Question

All the seven children of a couple are males. What is the probability that the eighth child will also be a male.

• A. $\frac{1}{2}$
• B. $\frac{1}{4}$
• C. $\frac{1}{8}$
• D. $\frac{1}{16}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{1}{2}$

The probability is 50% because the genders of the previous siblings does not affect the next outcome.

So, the correct answer is '1/2'.
